I imported an image of the fabric into Embird and using the Studio Plugin I created this snowman. I had a few difficulties when I embroidered him as some fabric got caught on the needle and tore.... wondering what I could do to solve my problem, I decided he needed to be on the snowbank to hid the small holes below the right foot....When I got home from dance classes with the girls tonight, I gave it to my 9yo.... and got a great big smile and some wonderful hugs.
I've been testing the Holland Road Pattern for Sara @ Sew Sweetness. You can see lots of other bags of hers in her Flickr group.
Like all her other patterns this went together easily and had great photos and instructions. I did add the zippered pocket as I thought this particular bag needed one. It will be donated to the RMM Pipeband's Silent Auction Fundraiser at our Robbie Burns dinner.
My 11yos dance teacher is dancing at a Christmas Dance performance and needed a new costume. She asked if I could sew her one. We traded, my sewing for lessons for my 11yo. I made her the black bodysuit, red glitter sparkle (on black) skirt and a cummerbund.
And the holiday season isn't complete without a gingerbread house!
